Selects an option or a quest from the interaction menu returned by [[API:InteractGetBaseInteractionData|InteractGetBaseInteractionData]].<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
InteractSelect(interactionId, type, slot)<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Arguments ==<br />
;interactionId : <code>number</code> – Id of the current interaction, the same value passed to [[API:InteractGetBaseInteractionData|InteractGetBaseInteractionData]]. Only its low 16 bits are compared.<br />
;type : <code>number</code> – The <code>type</code> field of the chosen option or quest.<br />
;slot : <code>number</code> – For quests (<code>type</code> 6), the quest's <code>slot</code> field. The stock UI passes <code>0</code> for other options.<br />
<br />
== Returns ==<br />
Nothing.<br />
<br />
== Details ==<br />
* If <code>interactionId</code> does not match the current interaction, nothing happens.<br />
* The client runs the action for <code>type</code>. For quests, a <code>slot</code> outside the quest list does nothing; otherwise the client sends the server a request for that quest.<br />
* <code>type</code> is not range-checked. The client looks it up in a table of handlers for types 0 to 22; the entries for 16 and 17 are empty, and values outside 0–22 are read past the end of the table. Only pass <code>type</code> values received from [[API:InteractGetBaseInteractionData|InteractGetBaseInteractionData]].<br />
* The function needs at least three arguments and only reads the last three.<br />
<br />
== Errors ==<br />
None besides the generic ''Invalid Parameters'' message when an argument is missing or not a number.<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
From <code>default/ea_interactionwindow/source/interactionbase.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
function EA_Window_InteractionBase.QuestLButtonUp()<br />
local buttonIndex = WindowGetId(SystemData.ActiveWindow.name)<br />
local dataIndex = ListBoxGetDataIndex("EA_Window_InteractionBaseQuestList", buttonIndex)<br />
local optionData = EA_Window_InteractionBase.questListData[dataIndex]<br />
<br />
InteractSelect(EA_Window_InteractionBase.tempTarget, optionData.type, optionData.slot)<br />
end<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
From the same file, for a menu option:<br />
<pre><br />
InteractSelect(EA_Window_InteractionBase.tempTarget, optionData.type, 0)<br />
</pre><br />
